Abstract
An optical structure for controlling distribution of light generated by a light source is described. The optical structure includes a primary optics disposed relative to the light source and configured to reflect light generated by the light source towards a target region. The optical structure also includes a secondary optics disposed and aligned relative to the primary optics. The secondary optics is configured to at least partially block light generated by the light source from illuminating a region outside the target region.
Claims16
A luminaire comprising:
- a plurality of light emitting diode (LED) light sources including at least a first LED light source and second LED light source;
- a plurality of primary optics including at least a first primary optic and a second primary optic, wherein the first primary optic surrounds the first LED light source and is configured to reflect light generated by the first LED light source towards a target region, and wherein the second primary optic surrounds the second LED light source and is configured to reflect light generated by the second LED light source towards the target region;
- and
- a plurality of curved secondary optics including at least a first curved secondary optic and a second curved secondary optic, wherein the first curved secondary optic surrounds at least a portion of the first LED light source and is nested within an opening of the first primary optic, wherein the first curved secondary optic is configured to at least partially block light generated by the first LED light source from illuminating a region outside the target region, wherein the first curved secondary optic is an arc shaped visor that comprises at least one of the following:
- a reflective surface facing the first LED light source or a biased surface facing the first LED light source, and wherein the second curved secondary optic surrounds at least a portion of the second LED light source and is nested within an opening of the second primary optic, wherein the second curved secondary optic is configured to at least partially block light generated by the second LED light source from illuminating a region outside the target region.
A lighting device comprising a plurality of light modules, wherein each of the plurality of light modules comprises:
- a plurality of light emitting diode (LED) light sources including at least a first LED light source and second LED light source;
- and
- an optical structure for controlling distribution of light generated by at least the first LED light source and the second LED light source, the optical structure comprising:
- a plurality of primary optics including at least a first primary optic and a second primary optic, wherein the first primary optic surrounds the first LED light source and is configured to reflect light generated by the first LED light source towards a target region, and wherein the second primary optic surrounds the second LED light source and is configured to reflect light generated by the second LED light source towards the target region;
- and
- a plurality of curved secondary optics including at least a first curved secondary optic and a second curved secondary optic, wherein the first curved secondary optic surrounds at least a portion of the first LED light source and is nested within an opening of the first primary optic, wherein the first curved secondary optic is configured to at least partially block light generated by the first LED light source from illuminating a region outside the target region, wherein the first curved secondary optic is an arc shaped visor that comprises at least one of the following:
- a reflective surface facing the first LED light source or a biased surface facing the first LED light source, and wherein the second curved secondary optic surrounds at least a portion of the second LED light source and is nested within an opening of the second primary optic, wherein the second curved secondary optic is configured to at least partially block light generated by the second LED light source from illuminating a region outside the target region.
A luminaire comprising:
- a plurality of light emitting diode (LED) light sources including at least a first LED light source and second LED light source;
- a plurality of primary optics including at least a first primary optic and a second primary optic, wherein the first primary optic surrounds the first LED light source and is configured to reflect light generated by the first LED light source towards a target region, and wherein the second primary optic surrounds the second LED light source and is configured to reflect light generated by the second LED light source towards the target region;
- and
- a plurality of secondary optics including at least a first secondary optic and a second secondary optic, wherein the first secondary optic surrounds at least a portion of the first LED light source and is nested within an opening of the first primary optic, wherein the first secondary optic is configured to at least partially block light generated by the first LED light source from illuminating a region outside the target region, wherein the first secondary optic is an arc shaped visor that comprises at least one of the following:
- a reflective surface facing the first LED light source or a biased surface facing the first LED light source, and wherein the second secondary optic surrounds at least a portion of the second LED light source and is nested within an opening of the second primary optic, wherein the second secondary optic is configured to at least partially block light generated by the second LED light source from illuminating a region outside the target region.
